An Arthurian spoof, with animals instead of people: King Earthor (an owl), Sir Belliful (a groundhog), Sir Tarryhere (a tortoise), Sir Gimmemore (a rabbit) Sir Runsalot (a mouse) and the Wizard Squirrelin. The knights and wizard go off to save the kingdom, sneak past a dragon, and finally manage to snag the Golden Nut from the giant hand in the middle of the lake. It is that Nut that will save the kingdom. There are rhymes and adventure and silliness.
